The disgraced Brooklyn cop accused of trying to shield her husband after he allegedly shot an officer whined a “sorry” apology yesterday – but the irate dad of the wounded policeman insisted that his “disgusted” son will never forgive her.

“I’m very sorry for the injuries to Officer [Andrew] Suarez, and I hope he recovers as he was before,” whimpered Officer Jacqueline Melendez-Rivera, 37, clutching the hand of her lawyer outside her in-laws’ Park Slope home.

“I feel horrible,” the cop later added. “A fellow officer – he’s a father, a brother. I feel devastated. I’m very, very sorry. I pray constantly that he recovers.”

The pretty, pregnant cop appeared grim-faced – while dolled up in makeup, a black sweater and form-fitting jeans.

Her lawyer, Jay Schwitzman, told The Post that his client’s relationship with her ex-con hubby, José Rivera, is now pretty much kaput.

It was apparently taboo by Police Department standards from the start, anyway.

Rivera had spent six years in the slammer on an attempted-murder rap before the couple was married, and NYPD rules prohibit officers from even associating with convicted felons.

“Their love story is over,” Schwitzman said.

Asked if that meant the couple was divorcing, the lawyer replied, “No. But she is moving forward.” He did not elaborate.

“When your husband does something, sometimes your love is taken away,” Schwitzman said. “But she’s pregnant with his baby, which makes it very difficult.”

The lawyer said his client has not spoken to her husband since they were arrested.

Melendez-Rivera is accused of repeatedly lying to cops as she tried to hide her husband’s bullet-riddled car after the shooting near their home early Saturday.

Rivera allegedly taunted Suarez and other undercover cops during a stare-down at a street corner as Rivera’s car pulled alongside the officers’ unmarked SUV – and then pumping a bullet into his side.

Police have said Suarez flashed his badge at Rivera before he was shot.

But the other man in the car with Rivera at the time of the shooting, Richie CedeÑo, denies that Suarez displayed his shield.

CedeÑo’s grandmother Maria Muniz yesterday told The Post that he confided to her:

” ‘They didn’t ID themselves. They told us to stop.’ They opened the passenger-side window, and [Rivera] said, ‘You got some beef with us?’ and then he reached over Richie with a gun and shot,” Muniz said.

The woman said her grandson claimed that as they sped off, CedeÑo told Rivera, ” ‘I’m going home.’ And José said, ‘No, you’re not. You’re coming home with me ’cause the cops are coming.’ ”

Melendez-Rivera’s lawyer said that his client didn’t realize at first that her husband was involved in a cop’s shooting.

“It’s not until she was in the precinct that she realized a police officer was shot,” Schwitzman said.

But Suarez’s dad, John, scoffed, “She broke an unwritten oath. She knew [Rivera] shot a cop because my son identified himself. He flashed his badge.”

He said his son “shakes his head” in his hospital bed in disbelief that another cop tried to shield the man who shot him.
